Review for Lubuto Library Partners, Washington, DC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As a Zambian who grew up in a village just on the outskirts of Lusaka, I appreciate what Lubuto is doing with the libraries. As a kid I loved reading and there were no Libraries in our village so the only time I read something was when grandma came back from the city and brought some old newspapers. I could read them before they were used for various things. That is why I was very happy to learn about what Lubuto was doing and I hope they can expand to reach as many kids. I know that in Lusaka the library situation is at crisis level. I may not have the numbers or the data, but I know that we do not have libraries for young people around. We easily have bars and taverns but not libraries. I am away for now, but I plan to be involved in Luboto projects as much as possible when I go back home. For some of the kids, having to read a book can make a whole life changing difference!
